    Around 200+ countries are participating, how many of them know about Cricket? Hardly 10-15 countries. Cricket schedule pannuradhukku munnadi Kabbadi-ya allow pannanum. At least it is played in Asian and Commonwealth games.

    It was a condescending 'look back'. Seeing how we evolved from that to this.

    K_G whatever floats your boat..praying your kids will play indoor cricket and break some glass

    P_R cricket is too elite a sport to go janaranjagam..int. t-20s are a major yawn fest with no relevance/reverence to record books and should be limited to club level so K_Gs of this world would get a taste of the game and pheel enlightened to embrace much truer test cricket.

    Cricket is for fat obese body, deluding it to have used their mind for what is essentially a static sport with discrete variables and sleep inducing dead time in between to make up for their slowness. Most of the team are left to contemplate meaning of existence, life and death, no wonder old people love it.
